Break out the sunscreen: High UV index today

The sun will be out this afternoon and temperatures will be warmer with winds coming out of the south, according to StormCenter 7 Meteorologist Carrieann Marit.

Conditions today will be comfortable with highs in the upper 70s, low humidity and a light breeze.

“We will have a high UV index today so for everyone who has plans outside will want to apply sunscreen,” Marit said.

Tonight will be mild and quiet with temps dropping into the mid 50s.

Sunday: Highs will be near 80 as a southerly flow will bring in even warmer air and more humidity. There will be partly cloudy skies with a passing shower or storm possible after sunset.

Monday: Memorial Day will be warm and humid with highs in the low 80s.

“Much of the day will be dry with a few pop-up showers or thunderstorms possible mainly in the afternoon,” Marit said.

Tuesday: A shower or thunderstorm will be possible in the afternoon with highs near 80.

Wednesday: We will be entering a more unsettled weather pattern. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected in the afternoon and evening with highs in the low 80s.
